Trust and transparency
Policies & listing standards
Plain-language standards for using NOWEKNOO. Last updated October 15, 2026.
Event listing labels
Organizer-managed listings are maintained inside NOWEKNOO by an organizer account. Public listings are compiled from publicly available organizer information and must be independently verified before applying or paying.
Prices and availability
Displayed vendor fees are starting points, not guaranteed totals. Booth size, category, power, permits, insurance, taxes, processing charges, late fees, and upgrades can change the final amount. Event dates, deadlines, openings, and policies may also change.
Decisions and results
NOWEKNOO does not guarantee event acceptance, attendance, safety, sales, profitability, refunds, or organizer conduct. Event-fit tools provide planning guidance; vendors remain responsible for their business decisions and verification.
Accounts, privacy, and payments
Account information is used to operate vendor and organizer workflows. Private uploads are intended only for authorized workflow participants. Card payments are processed through Stripe. Do not send card numbers, bank credentials, passwords, Social Security numbers, or government-identification images through NOWEKNOO messages.
Private communications
Messaging Terms & Safety
These terms apply when NOWEKNOO private messaging becomes available. Messaging is for direct business communication among eligible vendors, organizers, organization members, and other approved event participants. It is not a public forum, public feed, or public member directory.
1. Eligible use
You must have an authorized NOWEKNOO account and be at least 18 years old to use messaging. Access may be limited to people connected through the same market, festival, event, application, or organization. Do not share an account or impersonate another person or business.
2. Private—not secret or end-to-end encrypted
Messages are visible only to conversation participants and authorized NOWEKNOO personnel with a legitimate safety, support, security, legal, or abuse-prevention need. Messages are not posted on public profiles, but they are not end-to-end encrypted and should not be treated as confidential storage.
3. Information you must not send
Never send passwords, authentication codes, full payment-card information, bank-login credentials, Social Security numbers, tax-identification records, medical information, or other highly sensitive information. Use approved payment and document-upload tools instead of messages.
4. Prohibited conduct
Do not use messaging for harassment, threats, discrimination, stalking, sexual exploitation, fraud, scams, malware, unlawful goods or services, spam, unauthorized advertising, deceptive impersonation, doxxing, or attempts to bypass NOWEKNOO safety and payment controls. Do not scrape, sell, or distribute another user’s contact information or messages without lawful permission.
5. Business arrangements
Vendors and organizers are responsible for confirming identities, event requirements, prices, products, services, delivery, payments, refunds, taxes, permits, insurance, and written agreements. NOWEKNOO provides communication tools but is not a party to—and does not guarantee—private transactions, promises, attendance, sales, safety, or performance.
6. Reports, blocking, and review
Users may block, mute, archive, or report conversations. When a report is made, NOWEKNOO may review relevant messages, account records, and technical information; preserve evidence; restrict contact; suspend or terminate accounts; and contact appropriate authorities when reasonably necessary for safety or legal compliance. Blocking stops future contact but may not erase records already retained for legitimate purposes.
7. Storage and retention
NOWEKNOO may store messages, delivery status, participant identifiers, reports, and related security records for as long as reasonably necessary to operate the service, protect users, resolve disputes, prevent abuse, enforce these terms, and meet legal obligations. Archived or deleted conversations may remain in protected backups or retained records for a limited period.
8. Your content
You keep ownership of content you send. You give NOWEKNOO a limited permission to host, transmit, display to intended recipients, secure, back up, and review that content only as needed to provide and protect the messaging service and comply with law.
9. Safety and emergencies
Messaging is not monitored continuously and is not an emergency service. If anyone faces immediate danger, contact local emergency services. Preserve relevant messages and use the report feature for suspected fraud, harassment, threats, or other abuse.
10. Enforcement and changes
NOWEKNOO may limit or remove messaging access when reasonably necessary to protect users, the platform, or the public. Material changes to these terms will be dated and presented before continued messaging use when a new acknowledgment is appropriate.
Composer disclosure
Keep communication professional. Do not send passwords, financial credentials, or highly sensitive information. Messages may be reviewed when reported for safety, support, abuse prevention, or legal compliance. By sending, you agree to these Messaging Terms & Safety.
Corrections and support
Organizers will be able to request a listing correction or claim their event. Vendors will be able to report outdated information. A dedicated support address will be published before live billing is activated.
